I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meta in Oct 2013
Interview
I told them that I was on deadline with another offer from another top-tier Silicon Valley company, but even without special fast-tracking we managed to finish everything extremely quickly. On campus screen to onsite interview done within the same week and got my offer shortly afterwards!

Question 1
A bunch of pointer arithmetic and bit flipping questions, in the same interview as some dynamic programming problems
Overall, the process took a little over two weeks, which felt a bit longer than I anticipated. After a quick screening, I went through two technical rounds focusing on coding and DSA concepts. One of the questions was a classic palindrome check; mid-way through, I realized it was something I had practiced on PracHub just days earlier. The final step was a casual behavioral interview. I was relieved to get an offer shortly after, which I happily accepted.
